A last-gasp goal saw Qatar SC hold Al Shahania 3-3 in their exciting second-round match in Group A of the 2024-2025 season QSL Cup at the Abdullah Bin Khalifa Stadium of Al Duhail club on Saturday.

While Qatar SC went up the lead early in the game, Al Shahania hit back with their three goals in the opening half. Qatar SC then rallied to level scores with the final goal coming in the dying moments of stoppage time.

While Andreas Van Beek (24th minute), and Petrus Amersfoort (41st minute & 45+2 minute) scored for Al Shahania, the goals for Qatar SC came from Carlos Vinicius Jesus Carlinhos (16th minute & 90+8 mnute-penalty) and Ahmed Abdelqader (87th minute).

Qatar SC’s opening strike was thrilling as Carlinhos took a corner kick but the ball came back to him off a defence header and this time he sized up his kick superbly going over the goalkeeper’s head into the net.

Al Shahania hit back with Van Beek converting after a fine assist from Franceso Antonucci (1-1).

Amersfoort then swung into action late in the first half with a superb brace to make it 3-1. His first strike from just outside the box was off a cross from Antonucci from the right, while the second was much similar from top of the box after Hossam Kamal provided him the ball from the right.

Qatar SC retaliated with strong attempts but succeeded after some close chances only in the 87th minute, with Ahmed Abdelqader scoring off a ricochet from the goalkeeper’s hands after Carlos sent in a powerful kick (2-3).

Al Shahania foiled their own show as Sebastian Soria was pushed out in the dying moments of stoppage time by substitute Abdulaziz Al Yahri and the referee called for a penalty.

Carlinhos made no mistake from the spot to ensure a 3-3 draw for Qatar SC.
